Reply to comment by yaph in C Programming Language Influence Graph [OC] by yaph

What do the color, size and edges mean?

yaph OP t1_j0bppah wrote

The colors are based on the Louvain method for community detection, the node size represents the number of influenced languages within this graph and the edges point from influencing to influenced languages. There are small arrow markers that show the direction, better visible when you zoom in on the graph on the graphic source page.

a nice way to see the arrows direction is knowing that they always turn clockwise from their source

That's a very good observation, didn't even realize that myself until now.
